I looked into Spring when I first started using Hibernate because I hated manually juggling the Hibernate Session/Transaction...apparently Spring has an elegant solution through templates? I was turned off by the amount of XML required in Spring (and Hibernate) and that's what drove me to appreciate EJB 3.0 - particularly JBoss.Ivan has shown me how easy it is to develop a wicket app with the wicket+spring+hibernate stack and using jetty for debugging. It's very easy and very fast. The xml required for most tasks is pretty minimal. I'm not a huge fan of xml and would have never bought into spring if using it to manage hibernate required a lot.
Good luck with the portal. I'll keep a close eye on it.
